MODERATORS
Do these companies get criminally charged for failing to protect consumers or does the executive branch give them high fives and tax breaks?
no but it really should be a criminal charge
Absolutely. They should be held responsible by consumer protection laws. Too bad laws are for the poors.
No personal accountability is one of the cornerstones of "the corporation", it would totally ruin all the fun if someone had to go to jail for playing with your risk.
